Hyderabad civic body rolls back user fee hike at sports facilities

Hyderabad | Monday | 10th February, 2020

Summary:

Indoor complexes, stadiums and sports complexes run by GHMC had more than doubled their user fees in September last year. All these put together facilitate about 37 forms of sport such as cricket, badminton, roller skating, hockey, boxing, volleyball, football, basketball, table tennis and the like. The rise in user fees had greatly inconvenienced parents, especially those from slums, who wanted their children to play some form of sport. Similarly, user fees for summer camps for each individual that was revised from Rs 50 to Rs 100 for games like cricket, shuttle, tennis, table tennis and roller skating has been rolled back to Rs 50. Reducing the user fee is our small contribution to sport,” said a GHMC official..
